Lyssa True Poet aka “PZA” is a multifaceted writer, a licensed barber, and overall creative individual. As the daughter of a DJ, she fell in love with hip hop at a very young age. She is a lyrical rare breed, bringing a variety of styles and undeniable authenticity that is missing in a lot of today’s music. Having survived a variety of circumstances throughout adolescence, 6 years of incarceration, a life threatening disease which left her hospitalized in 2015, and a number of surgeries resulting in permanent nerve damage, overcoming against all odds is a part of PZA’s DNA. Sharing these stories through sound and poetry has been a therapeutic saving grace. Debuting in 2016 with R.A.P. (Rhythm And Poetry) Vol. 01, an insightful mixtape delivering colorful storytelling and thoughtful self reflections. The follow up album, 2018’s, Truth Serum, Lyssa travels through her upbringing through darker sounds, hard hitting drums, and witty back to back punch lines. In 2019, she delivered another lyrical gem, Patience & Potholes. Throughout each of the 9 records, she vividly paints her real life experiences with raw honesty and poetic grace. Lyssa’s early influences include The Fugees, DMX, Dead Prez, The Lox, UGK, Missy Elliot, Wu-Tang Clan, OutKast, Da Brat and TLC.

Slide GET ALBUM Patience &
Potholes
The third album release from Lyssa True Poet displays a rebellious, yet empathetic voice of strength, hope, resilience, and understanding. All of which she achieves through patience. She effortlessly paints vivid stories of her sacrifice and struggle on records like “Hard To Survive” and “Trouble Sleeping”, representing life’s potholes. Each of the 9 records flows as a soundtrack exploring a specific time in her life. “Note 2 Self” has been noted for it’s timeless message as well as clever penmanship.
Slide GET ALBUM Truth Serum Lyssa True Poets sophomore album is filled with ominous strings, hard hitting drums and bass. From the clever fan-crazed intro, all the way to the raw, attitude-filled outro, it becomes obvious she is versatile in her craft, delivering comedic punch lines on “Mic Check” while simultaneously allowing the listener into a more personal space exposing life lessons and hard to swallow truths on records like “Fast Forward” “Pray For Em” and “Truth or Dare”. Slide GET ALBUM RAP (Rhythm And Poetry) Vol. 01 The first release from Lyssa True Poet offers vulnerable, yet, enlightening poetic rhymes, delivered mostly over boom bap styled beats. The first single “Look 4 Me” has been featured on various music sites, such as hiphopoverload.com and digiindie.com, receiving substantial praise for her lyrical ability and unique vocals. From the moment the intro is introduced, until the final track “Searchin” finishes, it is evident Lyssa is a True Poet, and one you will want to hear more from!
